When we are still anxious about the parent-child relationship, worrying about the children's grades, and worrying about the children's naughty faces, have we ever thought that a group of children are running away on the road alone to survive, they have no time to go to school to study, to experience family affection, or even It is too late to finish their childhood, because they are in war, and there will be life crisis at any time if they do not escape.
Every war should not happen, not only for adults, but also for children. The film A Bag of Marbles is one such film, based on the autobiographical novel "Bag of Marbles" by contemporary French writer Joseph Joff. The film tells the story from the perspective of a child. During World War II, Germany occupied France, and Jews became the targets of attack. In order to avoid the pursuit of German soldiers, the Qiao family scattered and fled. Meet, part, and finally meet again.
There are many anti-war films of various types, and there are also endless Jewish-themed ones. "The Jewish Seuss", "The Pianist" and "A Bag of Marbles" are all excellent works, but each of them is very good. Emphasis is different. A bag of marbles is from the perspective of a child, reminds me that "All Quiet on the Western Front" also looks at war from the perspective of a teenager. In the eyes of children, whether there is no war or not, they don't understand what war means, or even understand war. will bring death. They were at an age when they were supposed to bask in the good times, but were forced to run away. Also because of this age, they didn't have a heavy heart on the way to escape. Instead, it was like on the journey. In order to get together with their relatives as soon as possible, they overcame the hardships that did not belong to their age.
War often makes people think of human nature, but also makes people afraid of human nature. The whole film also highlights the two sides of human nature by contrasting good and evil. The story of the whole film is simple, without the cruelty of filming the war head-on, but it makes people think that even children will be affected by this, let alone adults in the whole society? Every war should never happen, no matter who you are and for what reason!
